Visitors on the Road Less Traveled

1. Sorry my postings have been really sporadic lately...this is because I feel boring. Because I wait....and wait....and...well you get the point.

2. I stopped using Mr. & Mrs. S, it's really a pain to try to remember. I like our names. Sidnei & Stephanie. Just no last names. Is Mr. S happy? Not particularly, but I told him it was all okay. Especially since I googled me, and it's really just not that hard to find me.

3. As you remember, I have started compiling a list of things I need to do in order to move to Brazil (note that this is not an official declaration that I am moving for sure...I am just acting on the premise that is where we are headed because I'm about 95% sure). Well it is growing HUGE. There are a MILLION things I need to take care of.

4. On Wednesday my NEW computer is coming in!! I am VERY excited!

5. I have had SERIOUS stomach issues...ALL weekend. I mean like I lost five pounds in two days issues. I am praying it stops tonight so that I can go to work tomorrow. I am B-U-S-Y (thank goodness) at work (another reason for not posting or commenting much).

6. My Dad and I had an ACTUAL conversation about me moving to Brazil. Which was a step in the fact that he recognizes that I WILL move there, with or without his blessing. Unfortunately, I think the only reason he realized this is because he needs to find someone to run the business.

7. Sidnei and I made the decision that if he is deported, I will make all the arrangements here BEFORE I go to Brazil. So that I only have to travel once. So that we save the money. So that I don't have to leave him again. However, this means that I will be here for a month or so after he goes to Brazil. Which will be very difficult. I want to be with him the MINUTE I can. But I know there are a lot of things to take care of here. And I want to spend some time with my family before I go. I thought about flying out to Utah for a few days as well, but we'll see how all the preparations go.

8. We are DESPERATELY hoping to hear news this week. Sidnei has been sick which equals being miserable. But as always, as soon as I know, so will you, because I will be SO overjoyed!

I think of you often...even when I don't comment, and think that you're an amazing young woman. Y'all have been through so much but have kept the faith and are taking proactive measures to fix things the best you can. Keep it up...one day you'll understand why you had to go through all of this. Hard as it is to accept when we're going through trials and tribulations, everything does happen for a reason. I'm convinced of that.

My posts are so sporadic lately as well... And not about much. I have all of these thoughts in my head, things I want to write about, and then I just can't get myself to write about them. I am glad you were able to talk with your dad. That must have been difficult. But good for you.

Hey, you've waited this long, what's another month right? Wrong, but oh well. If you come to Utah we should plan a get together with all of your Utah blog readers so we can meet you before you leave the country! I will plan it if you want!

Oh my gosh, please come to Utah!!!! We would be soooo excited to see you and Lola would love to meet you!!! You could stay with me if you wanted to, you would have the basement to yourself!!! I can help with anything you need!! I hope you get some news soon *fingers crossed*

Maybe its selfish but I really hope that you come to Utah for a couple days! I would love love love to see you. And if I can help with anything let me know. oh and P.S. my house is 5 min from the airport :)

Girl - I hope you hear some news.. I pray it will be good news. If he is deported, then off you go to Brazil without a second thought. It's a great country! And not too far from the US.. and they can visit you...

Hey Stephanie! Hope you're feeling better! Maybe it's nerves? Danielle is great. Haven't met her, but we exchange comments/emails. Glad to see she remembers the same process as I did! Did you get a bunch of snow dumped on you? Drive carefully!
